James Abraham Wells, known equally well by his original DJ Moniker: James Wells “Direct Drive” as the current “Father Abraham” has Wowed crowds on 3 continents and 8 Countries for 46 years. 

Known for his innovative style and creative fusions of Rock, Jazz, R&B, and Rap with House Rhythms have kept Him high on the list of perpetually booked DJ’s in the Metro Detroit Area.  Abraham can be just as soon found rocking an Old School Motown Vibe party for 4 Hours, as Banging 6 Hours at a House Music Boat Ride, as Spinning at a Ballroom Showdown. 

Abraham’s Mixtapes are legendary, theme-based, journeys, which can have you sitting in your driveway refusing to exit the vehicle or making that road trip in record time. 

His primary influences in the industry include his Sensei the Legendary Ken Collier (r.i.p.) who took him under his wing in 1978, Stacy “Hotwaxx” Hale, and Felton Howard, one of the first Detroit DJ’s to Mix on the Radio.

DJ, Promoter, and Supporter of Musical Causes.  Father Abraham is all of these, and still going strong!!
